Still not "terrorized" by the Boston Marathon bombings (and stuff afterwards). [View all]
How?
a) Wasn't there; we live in Michigan.
b) Did not watch television news coverage about it; we use DVR to tape shows, and those that were "interrupted" weren't watched (sometimes days later) - we just deleted them.
c) Stayed informed via the Internet. Main sources of information (including "latest breaking"
were DU, facebook and the Yahoo main page. Was shockingly up-to-the-minute informed despite only paying attention a few times a day.
All in all I am completely impressed by how everyone EXCEPT THE NEWS MEDIA handled these events.
Still no burning desire to run out and buy weapons of mass destruction, or curtail civil liberties. Didn't even discuss it with the kids. To be fair, we were watching "Buffy" most of the weekend, as the whole family has been recovering from mild spring misery, so we did offer parental wisdom: "If you see a monster chasing you, RUN!"
Hey, did anyone notice that "no regulation" at a fertilizer plant is a bad thing?
